I agree with trying to get to the front was a bit difficult, especially with a couple of beers in hand, but when you're with confusion and co. we had a great time bouncing about. Watched the "A Digital Mike Production" of Sonar last night, well several times and yes the happy clappy stuff is a bit naff, but lets face it, Barney's dad dancing was never that great and being older he probably feels more of a need for a rest than getting down on his knees to pray, he may not get back up ! First come, first served. Why should people who were there much earlier than you let you go to the front? I don't understand, why you complain?  There was even a mosh pit. By the way it isn't very clever to try to go to the front before the gig or during elegia. I was very near the front, but the "mosh pit" (I wouldn't call it a mosh pit) was so tiny, I had to do a few steps more to the front. By the way, I'm not complaining, just stating. I had a great time, despite the moronic clapping along (but hey, who am I to judge). Good thing the blow up mic stayed at home.

I prefer usually fresh air amd I am too big for indoors. I was indoors only during the UK tour and in Vienna because lots of people asked for me. But it's fun and I am an eye catcher for TV cameras at open air festivals.

Fair point. What i can never understand though is people right down at the front complaining about people who are dancing/ jumping up and down etc or "moshing" for want of a better word . I remember at Doves at Manc V Cancer in 2006 a girl moaning and whining at me because i was, oh i dunno, not dancing exactly but moderately enthusiastic in the mosh pit about the music coming from the stage. We're talking about 2 rows from the front. Jesus wept. Guess it's the brain dead, non moving,Terracotta army, bed wetting Coldplay generation that now rules Edited by user 30 June 2012 03:57:19(UTC)
